Coming Home

Nasty weather, cold and damp,
some life inconveniences.
Still your image keeps me warm.
Soon, I will have your embrace.

Gloomy thoughts and misfortunes.
My sorrow, my heartaches.
How your vision changes these.
In my arms, you will linger.

Ugly trials of this world,
Come thunder, come storm or hail!
For the promise of your hug,
never shall I be conquered.

This one's for my daredevil!

Conquering Fear

Your heart has turned into steel.
No injuries to endure,
nothing to hurt you.
What is there to lose?

You have wept a thousand times.
With your promise to decline,
still it clings to you.
What is there to sob?

You have given all your best.
Turned your evenings into days,
and yet a failure.
What is there to fear?

People fear of rejection,
heart breaks unacceptable.
You have faced them all.
What is there to lose?
